Otule is out for the season

Coach Buzz Williams said after Saturday’s game against Syracuse that Otule, who suffered a knee injury against Washington on Dec. 6, would have surgery on Tuesday and would not play again this season.

“We’re disappointed for Chris as a player that his fourth season at Marquette has ended the way that it has,” said Williams. “But it’s the right thing to do relative to the rest of his career at Marquette and for the rest of his life.”
